DECISION ON APPEAL
This is a decision on appeal from the examiner's final rejection of claims 1-10, which
are all of the claims pending in this application.1
1The amendment after final rejection filed February 27, 1997 (Paper No. 8) was not entered. While an
amendment after final rejection filed August 25, 1997 (Paper No. 11) has been entered, this amendment merely
deleted text from the specification which had been objected to by the examiner as being new matter and did not alter
the claims.
